ITEMS FOR INFORMATION ONLY:
Revenue Sharing and Transportation Alternatives Program Applications: Staff gave an overview
of the project candidates that are under development for the pre-application stage. The Revenue
Sharing application project is for the widening of Route 11 south of Shawnee Drive. This will require
widening the box culvert and a signal at Opequon Church Lane with modification to the entrances.
The other Revenue Sharing project application is in the area of Sherando High School at Route 277
and Warrior Drive with the potential of recent proposed developments in several adjoining parcels.
This application would improve Warrior Drive with modifications and changes South onto Brandy
Lane. Improvements will need to be made in upgrading Brandy Lane from a private to a public
roadway to Double Church Road. The Transportation Alternatives would include improvements to
Inverlee Way, Valley Mill Road sidewalk extension, and Warrior Drive with a shared use path.
County Project Updates: Renaissance Drive: The Board has approved the funding for the project
and Staff is proceeding to a contract.
Gainesboro Road/Route 522 Intersection Project: Staff has received the County’s consultant
modifications to the study and is in review with Staff.

field data as well as beginning to work on the regional model.
Other: Staff participated in the CTB Spring Public Meeting as it went well and received positive
feedback.
